SCOTTISH Labour leader Anas Sarwar has "unequivocally" apologised to a maternity campaigner who claims she was misquoted on a Labour election leaflet.

The pamphlet featured a stunned Claire Fleming, who told Clyde 1 she did not say the quoted words or consent to be on the cover.

"Waiting lists are too high but these aren't just numbers on a bit of paper, these are people's lives. Anas Sarwar and Scottish Labour will fix our NHS"
